FAQ
Q: What do you need from me to get started?
A: Just upload your manuscript (Word format is best so I can use Track Changes) and tell me your target journal or purpose, your field, the word count, and any areas you'd like me to focus on. The more context you give, the better I can tailor the edit.
Q: Will you edit the science/content, or just the language?
A: I focus on language, clarity, flow, and academic tone — making your writing read clearly and professionally for reviewers. I don't alter your data, results, or scientific conclusions; your research stays entirely yours. If something is unclear, I'll flag it with a comment so you can decide.
Q: Which fields do you work with?
A: I'm strongest in the life and environmental sciences — biology, plant science, microbiology, agriculture, environmental science, and related areas. If you're unsure whether your topic fits, just message me first and I'll tell you honestly.
Q: Can you guarantee my paper will be accepted by the journal?
A: No honest editor can promise acceptance — that decision rests with the journal's editors and reviewers. What I can do is make sure language and clarity are never the reason for rejection, and that your manuscript reads at a strong, native-level standard.
Q: Will I be able to see the changes you make?
A: Yes. I edit using Track Changes in Word, so you see every edit and can accept or reject each one. I also add margin comments explaining important suggestions, so you stay fully in control.
Q: My manuscript is longer than the package word count. What should I do?
A: No problem — just message me with the total word count before ordering and I'll set up a custom offer, or you can add the "additional 1,000 words" extra at checkout.
Q: Do you edit responses to reviewer comments?
A: Yes — that's included in the Premium package. If you've received reviewer feedback and need help writing clear, professional, persuasive responses, I can help you address each point effectively.
Q: Is my work kept confidential?
Q: Is my work kept confidential? A: Absolutely. Your manuscript and data are treated as strictly confidential and are never shared or reused. Your research is safe with me.
Q: Do you use AI to edit my work?
A: Your manuscript is edited personally by me, a publishing scientist, so the judgment behind every change comes from real subject expertise and journal experience. (Note: Fiverr also has a checkbox asking you to disclose AI tool use — answer it honestly based on your actual workflow.
